RANDOM POETRY from an idiot! (hell)

[Comet]

(yours truly- I have plenty of junk like this, but will start a "real" poetry thread soon)

I looked to the sky
It was unuasually bright
A flash here, antoher there
With many multi-colored lights
Disappearing and reappearing
they chased me through the night

I feared for my life
as I jumped in a ditch to hide
Then I saw my watch
It was the 4th of July

Oh, and I thought this was going to be a thread discussing how to use software to create random poetry!?!

We did that years ago, using WordPerfect mail merge.

Then I wrote a slightly more sophisticated APL programme to do the same. Being an APL programme, I could've coded it in one line, but I took 10 instead, because I was lazy.

That sounds like fun! Maybe you should do that again and share with all- WOW, this is the most conversation I've seen over poetry!!!!!!!!
(yours truly again- a special poem since BOOKO responded to something in this thread!)

Once I had a dream
A dream of me and you
I always hoped that dream
One day would come true

Then you left with him
My life I wished to yield
Till you two broke up
And I say you in that field

You yelled to me you loved me
And you wanted to together make a stand
We ran towards each other
My dream almost in reach of my hand

I was about to get my wish
My world no longer blue
But then I tripped
And fell on my untied shoe

We collided heads
I knocked you out and you're still in a coma
(like with the riddles, I am a sick-sick man)

I like your sick sense of humor.

WOW! Another reply on a poetry thread!!!!
(yours truly again- a special poem for evearael's reply)

When I heard the front door, I wished you'd never left
I head the footsteps, and thought of the long walks we used to take
When I the bedroom door began to open, I hoped you were back again
But when I saw the ghost of a viking standing there,
I GOT THE HELL OUT OF THE HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the pattern of the first one, especially! My first thoughts were of fireflies, but I liked the twist you put on it!

Holy cow reply #3!!!!!
(yours truly again with a special poem for Feathersinhair)

My feet are cold, my body is wet
I swim through the cool blue water
Swimming atop the waves and rough water
That my boat makes as it sinks to the bottom of the lake
